We had the most amazing stay at Tanglewood in St Austell.On arrival we were welcomed by home made scones, jam & cream ( which were absolutely delicious ! ) & some chocolate eggs as we stayed Easter weekend.The house has everything you need & more, literally everything is provided, even down to toilet rolls towels, tea, coffee, sugar, tea towels, the list goes on !!! The kitchen had everything you needed, the back garden was beautiful kept & there is enough board games to keep all your family entertained for weeks ! We were also allowed to check in earlier which is always a bonus ! Only 30 minutes from Newquay too. Highly recommend.
